Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - Solo
This one's a divisive dark horse. Some reckon it's a classy, unique leather-tea blend, a more serious take on the original Solo. Others find it an absolute scrubber, akin to 'toilet spray' or a 'dusty gymnasium'. Try before you buy, unless you're a gambling man.

Our Verdict - Bad Boy Elixir
This one's a proper beast, a polarising leather bomb that's either a stroke of genius or a 'synthetic mess'. If you're a fan of strong, assertive leather, this 'Elixir' could be your new signature. Just don't expect it to play nice.

Solo

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter
Also Works:
Spring

Versatile across every season - no clear seasonal preference from wearers.

Occasions

Best For:
Office Date Formal
Also Works:
Casual

With its moderate performance and elegant leather-tea profile, this scent is ideal for office and formal wear, where refinement is key. It's also well-suited for dates due to its sensual character, but its richer accords make it less versatile for casual daytime or sport.

Bad Boy Elixir

Seasons

Best For:
Autumn Winter

A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.

Occasions

Best For:
Date Formal

Its immense longevity, strong sillage, and dominant leather notes make it unsuitable for the office or sport. However, its captivating, seductive nature shines through on dates and formal evenings, especially in cooler weather where it truly thrives.
